    Wheel bearing getting hot

    If it didn’t feel right in any way I would pull it, degrease it, and give it a thorough inspection. If you have any doubt at all replace it. The cost of a bearing is a lot less than what it will take with it on its way out.

    Electrical Overheating M35A2

    I would trace out your battery cables and look for a wire that has insulation that is rubbed through and causing a short when the truck bounces down the road. The only way to know if it’s caused by truck movement would be to let it sit and idle (or high idle) for an extended period and see if...

    Anyone around Biloxi MS?

    Trying to see if we have any members around Biloxi MS that might be able to pick up a couple of small parts for me and send them over to Quincy Florida?

    What did you do to your deuce this week?

    That looks like the standard air assist unit to me. No fluid required. Just air from the compressor. Is there an air cylinder down on the front axle?

    Question for Florida Residents

    That would have been super handy. Do you have any additional information on it like make and model?

    Question for Florida Residents

    The move is getting close. The Deuce and the M105 are loaded heavy to the top of the canopies. After looking at shipping costs I decided to enclose my gooseneck and do the majority myself. Lost some load capacity due to the weight of the wood but I gained a ton of useable cubic footage. We...

    Truly appreciated. It looks like the moving fiasco starts on the first of next month. Wish me luck.

    Looks like it’s game on. Put in an offer on the property this weekend and it was accepted.

    Thanks Russ. I truly appreciate that. We will be flying down next Thursday. Just spoke with the county and a shop would be permitted. One step closer.

    That’s what I was hoping to hear!

    Question for Florida Residents

    I saw that it was blue, and it almost stopped me from looking at the listing. Unfortunately, the property has so much to offer that it’s something I may just have to live with. Flying down next Thursday to see it in person. Spokane proper is blue and I live out in the valley which is red. The...

    Question for Florida Residents

    I considered that, but time is going to be of the essence, and I don’t think my old bones would take a trip like that. I’d probably be laid up for a month afterwards. LOL! For the price my transport company said that I can load anything else that will physically fit on the trailer up to 26,000...

    I think the M105A2 is 2750# empty.
